i htink because she truly bealived in him and never douted him or hated him she was always secretly admiring him and because they just seam 2 make eachother feel better like in the episode were naruto is going to fight with neji and hinata is making him feel stronger it was sweet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Naruto gave Hinata courage to be courageous just by being himself and Hinata believed in Naruto, gave up her thoughts for Naruto and had affection for Naruto.But this affection is hard to express for Hinata so it makes the love a secret crush/childish

she's like way better than sakura and ino (no offense to those ones who likes sakura and ino, but my friends all HATES them, especially sakura). she's shy and cute (and so innocent) . she has to be my fav character. well, apart from the akatsuki.
